We are a small volunteer-run organisation based in the Sutherland Shire in Sydney, supporting people from refugee backgrounds to settle in the area. We provide social and financial support to meet gaps in government-funded services.

We are looking for a public profile volunteer to join our team. This mainly includes managing and updating our Facebook account, monthly newsletter, and updating our website occasionally. Sometimes you will help us to organise a stall at a local market, etc. We would also love to have a volunteer help us develop relationships with local employers and real estate agents to help refugees find work and find housing. If you are a creative thinker and know how to make a big impact with little to no budget, we would love to hear from you!

Our preference is for a Sydney-based volunteer, as sometimes we have face-to-face activities (a few times per year).

In this role, you will be helping promote our organisation and help to make a direct impact on the lives of people from refugee backgrounds, such as by providing rental subsidies and cost of living relief.

If you are interested, you can also support with providing direct social support to our participants - such as practicing English, helping with rental applications, having family playdates.

You'll be joining a warm, welcoming group of locals who are all passionate about helping people in the community. Because we're a small organisation, our structure and roles are flexible and there are always opportunities to be innovative and stretch your skills. Help us grow!

To express your interest in the role, tell us a little about yourself and why you're interested, as well as the skills you bring. We will then contact you for an informal interview, followed by some background checks. Once completed, we will organise an induction and training.
